 I have had symptoms all my life, I was diagnosed this year.

The symptoms didn't get bad though until two years ago.

I would have flares but they would come and go rather quickly, but I just always thought everyone hurt like that. I'm just now learning that it's not normal to have those kinds of pains and be as tired as I have always been.I always thought everyone was sensitive to touch as well.

 I was told about 3 years ago, but was in denial..I was still dealing with the accident..Then Jan.08 Dr. said it again and this time I excepted it...I " am dealing with it" not letting it controll me..Trying not to let in deal with me!!I do "ok"..I am doing it naturaly as possiable,,,I do have pain meds, and muscle relaxers if I cant get it under controll.."I fight it everday",I try to get up and get going,,and if I have too,I take a nap!!!
I HAVE BEEN STUDYING UP ON FIBRO. I HAVE DECIEDED TO DO IT NUTRIONALY, AND USING AS LITTLE MEDS AS POSSIABLE!SCIENCE HAS FOUND WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!NOW WE CANIMPROVE OUR HEALTHWITH WHAT GOD HAS PROVIDEDNATURAL.WITH HIM ALL THINGS ARE POSSIABLE!!!
